About this property
Cute and Cozy 3BR House with Parking
Our 3 BR house with garage is perfect for football weekends! It's just a five-minute drive to downtown and Kinnick Stadium, and a block from the bus line that will take you downtown, where you can walk or take a shuttle bus to the game.
Tastefully and warmly decorated with a cozy feeling, this house will make you feel welcome and at home. Chill out on the deck with a glass of wine while you use the gas grill, or watch Netflix on the TV in the living room.
Lovely residential neighborhood with a mix of older Victorian and more modern houses. The park on the corner has a fun jungle gym for kids with slides, swings, etc. Near to grocery stores, bars and restaurants.
Sleeps up to 8 with flexible bedding options. Three bedrooms feature a queen, 2 full and a twin bed, sleeping up to seven. One more on the living room couch (not a pull-out sleeper, but still comfortable.)
Hardwood floors, fenced-in backyard with deck and grill, small fully-equipped kitchen. No smoking, please. One bathroom on ground floor.
This house may not be the perfect choice for those with limited mobility due to old-style narrow stairs and two stairs up to the back door onto the deck. Great house for small gatherings of family or friends.

About the host
Hosted by Katie
My name is Katie, and I’m a professional musician who has lived and worked in Iowa City since 2004. I love to travel, experience new cultures and meet many people. When I stay in a place I'm visiting for a number of days, it’s so much nicer to have a place to use as your home base where I can relax and have the option to cook a nice meal. I appreciate the little touches that transform a mere place to rest your head into a place that feels a little more like home.
Why they chose this property
I have always loved the family feeling of this neighborhood, the tree-lined streets and lovely gardens.
What makes this property unique
This is a charming older house with lots of character in a safe, quiet residential neighborhood a short distance from the University, hospitals and downtown.
